Nancy from Holmdel, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since June of 2024. The generator was commissioned that October: a Generac Guardian rated 19.5 kW on natural gas, on a 200-amp service-entrance switch with a smart management module and surge protection. The load calculation asked for 13 kW across the 2,400 square foot house, so the machine installed carries a wide margin over the code minimum – which is the difference between a generator that runs near its limit whenever it is called on and one that idles comfortably through the same outage. The generator is supported by annual maintenance, an extended parts-and-labor warranty, and monitoring we manage.
Why Nancy chose Green Sun Energy Services

Standby generator questions from Holmdel homeowners
How far does a generator have to be from a window or door?
Manufacturer guidance requires substantial separation from operable windows, doors, vents and other openings through which exhaust could enter the house -- commonly five feet for the applicable air-cooled configurations. The exact model's current installation manual has to be checked before a location is approved.
Does a generator in Holmdel have to sit twelve inches above the flood elevation?
That figure should not be treated as a universal rule without looking at the actual property. The required elevation can depend on the flood-zone designation, the municipal freeboard, the Design Flood Elevation, Coastal A or V Zone conditions, NJDEP requirements and the applicable building-code provisions. Each flood-zone installation is worked out individually.
What does remote monitoring actually tell you?
Depending on the generator and the connectivity, remote monitoring can report status, maintenance notifications, alarms, exercise information and operating history. Its real value is that a fault announces itself between service visits, instead of being discovered during the outage it was bought for.
